The Moro Islamic Liberation Front, the largest Muslim rebel group in the Philippines, has warned Muslims in Mindanao to report to authorities anybody who is recruiting members for the so-called Bangsamoro Police Force.
| This is seriously surreal: the Moro Islamic Liberation Front playing the good citizen. Not something I ever expected to see. |
The warning came out following reports that several groups have been recruiting and collecting money from Muslims who are being lured to join the security force. The syndicates were collecting P2,500 from each applicant to the police force. It was not immediately known how many people have been duped by the groups or who are behind them. |
